Who needs witches and vampires? Pop culture is practically bursting with Halloween costume ideas inspired by everything From TV and film characters to buzzy VMA performances. We’ve already given you a few Halloween how-tos, but here’s a look at the most inventive, spot-on and hilarious outfits. Take a look:

A lot of people may want to dress as Miley Cyrus in 2013, but last year, the Bangerz singer donned her biggest wig and most print-happy body suit to impersonate Nicki Minaj. (Update: Miley decided to channel yet another hip-hop diva for Halloween this year: Lil Kim. The Bangerz singer donned a purple wig and sequined body suit to recreate Lil Kim’s revealing 1999 VMA ensemble. See the NSFW photo here.)

Another popular character choice for this year? Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games trilogy. These three women covered their Katness bases with three different looks, Games Katniss, Reaping Katniss, and “It’s cold during the Games” Katniss.
